It's okay if you don't have a copy already. I assume it's because you were prevented by unfortunate circumstances, or had one but lost it in a game of chance

me: Ok so Cranky Kong is actually the original Donkey Kong, and the DK in Donkey Kong Country is his grandson. Or son? But that would mean he's Donkey Kong Jr. Haha, I'm sorry, I might be getting this wrong, I haven't read up on it in a while.

Someone tried to tell me LLMs are "here to stay" (which is what they tell you when they can't convince you it's good) and when I said nah I'll just wait for the bubble to burst

she said

"This isn't a bubble that's going to burst, this is a bubble that's going to keep on expanding :)"
